To him it may be overBut for her it'll be one day at a timeHe may call it freedomBut to her he's still locked inside her mindYou can throw away love's golden pen'Cause that's all she wroteThe fire of love they kindledHas all gone up in smokeWhat a shame, what a sightA good love died tonight.

To him it's just and endingBut to her the pain's beginning to startFor him it's just a walk awayBut for her it's a breaking heartOne goodbye and lots of tearsAre all she has left to showFor those seven yearsThat just walked out the doorA lot of dreams lost their lives whenA good love died tonight.

They were headed for foreverWhen the hope that they were riding left the trackAll the pleading and believing in the worldWon't bring the feeling backYou can throw away love's golden pen'Cause that's all she wroteThe fire of love they kindledHas all gone up in smokeWhat a shame, what a sightA good love died tonight.
